The Hadrian 29th March 2014

Not seen a thread for this tour with 46115 now replacing 60009 due to gauging issues at Carlisle . No times up yet though .Scots Guardsman is sat outside the sheds at Carnforth but not in steam yet .

 

With 60007 down at Southall for the KGX - York run on the same day, she'd be hard pushed to work the Hadrian at the same time, gauging issues or not.

 

Sorry my description was misleading as I quoted the wrong A4 being replaced ( now changed to 60009 ).

 

I think "Plan A" was 60009.

Replacing 60009

 

Thanks Steven , I quoted 60007 and not 60009 as per plan A like you say .

 

This is the path from Leicester to Carlisle ( I think ) showing on realtime.

Roared thru Langcliffe bang on time, fabulous - tho the sun turned shy while it passed

 

Roaring performance from The Scot.



Hope you enjoy.

 

Great! Thanks for that.

 

WOW, you bet I did ! Been my favourite loco since 1963, the rebuilts are soooo impressive when on song, which this one is, without doubt. Great filming!

 

Couple of shots from Garsdale and Cowran Cutting. Good to see you again today Stephen.
